There are a bunch of these cemeteries in Wisconsin, basically in every county, mainly where ever the former "County Home" or County Asylums were located. The poor, who died indigent, without living relatives, often ended up being buried in these cemeteries, with a simple headstone, often without anything much on them. Many years ago, when I started my geneological search of my family and my wife's family, I spent a lot of time searching cemeteries and headstones, and noted a number of pauper headstones during those expeditions.Coast Rathttp://coastrat.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5114884266541988246.post-87736046132881324352009-05-15T16:50:42.000-06:002009-05-15T16:50:42.000-06:00I'm glad to see that they aren't forgotten...I'm glad to see that they aren't forgotten any more.
